- This is what you get for expressing certainty, Liam! People poke holes! This was a pretty clear fourth down “go” situation, but I went into how or why you might disagree.
- Liam Coen had to answer for a particular fourth down play late in Sunday's loss to the Bengals We dissect the decision and what the probabilities were had he chosen differently @vigmanoncampus.bsky.social gets into the nuances of difficult choices www.sportsinfosolutions.com/2025/09/17/w...
- Every year our Total Points player value system seems to decide on its "guy" that is rated surprisingly well. Bo Nix was its guy in 2024, ranking 6th in passing. Through W9, he was 31st in EPA and 3rd in Total Points. After W9, he was 2nd in EPA and 15th in Total Points. Weird year.

- Fun news from our football group! We already had an Expected Points model, but it wasn't great at handling late-half (and especially late-game) situations. So we built a new one, which does a LOT better in those spots. Check out the writeup: www.sportsinfosolutions.com/2025/08/13/a...

- In recent drafts we don’t trade future first round picks even once. Why on this night did we trade twice? (Was that not the type of question we were talking about?)
- Our @vigmanoncampus.bsky.social came up with 4 questions for team's trading next year's first round pick - as happened twice on Thursday He looked at draft pick value, cost, and the thought process of making that move READ: www.sportsinfosolutions.com/2025/04/28/f...

- Jeanty's overall projection is better than other players who have had similar profiles in terms of where they run and how they elude tackles. That said, those similar players from the last five drafts have tended to underperform. Also added some other names to watch based on their profiles.
- Ashton Jeanty put up incredible numbers at Boise State But how do his measured football skills actually fit in the NFL? @vigmanoncampus.bsky.social with the stats and analysis www.sportsinfosolutions.com/2025/04/02/a...
- I did a bunch of different dives into our Strike Zone Runs Saved metric, starting with just “who’s good”. We’ll also be going into how much framing value has changed over time and to what extent the other actors (batter, pitcher, umpire) affect things, so stay tuned!
- This is the 10th anniversary of our winning an award at the Sloan Conference for our pitch framing research @vigmanoncampus.bsky.social looked at the last 10 years of our "Strike Zone Runs Saved" stat to see which C stood out & which teams/orgs stood out www.sportsinfosolutions.com/2025/04/02/s...

- Reposted by Alex VigdermanThe Chiefs are the best team in the NFL at converting 3rd-and- '4 to 7' yards to go into first downs (doing so on either 3rd or 4th down) In these 3rd-and-medium situations, they do a designed run 1% of the time. The other 99% is Patrick Mahomes passing or scrambling.
- Reposted by Alex VigdermanPopular topic of discussion the last 2 weeks: Does the Chiefs offense get favorable treatment from officiating crews? Rather than just make a blanket statement, we studied the data Here's what we found: READ: www.sportsinfosolutions.com/2025/02/06/w...

- Started with schematic research for this week's NFL games, ended up with a bigger conclusion: Most tendency / scheme mismatches that you see—Team A is great at X, Team B is bad defending X—aren't often predictive of the upcoming game. A good starting point for discussion and film study though!

- Reposted by Alex VigdermanNew Off the Charts! The crew breaks down all the QB/defense matchups, coaching chess piece maneuverings and injuries in this weekend's NFL playoff games.
- Total Points sometimes decides it wants to stan for quarterbacks in ways that I don't entirely understand. In 2019, it was Aaron Rodgers. (Worked out well in retrospect.) For the last couple years it's been Derek Carr. (Was working out well for a bit of 2024...) Now, it seems like it's Bo Nix.
- The stats we've developed to evaluate NFL players have viewed Broncos QB Bo Nix favorably On the surface, that's hard to understand. But as @vigmanoncampus.bsky.social writes "There are a lot of plays where he does all right and something goes horribly wrong ..." bit.ly/3P7YOK1
- A few years ago we did some work on defensive shifts that operated on a similar premise as this article does with base stealing. While the aggregate proposition of shifting was still positive, it could have been much better if teams were reducing their use in lower-EV situations.
- Gaze upon my Carcassonne, Azul, Wingspan, Dominion, and Gloomhaven art! Oh and stay for football takes.
